CYCLONE IN MYANMAR

A young boy sits in front of the wreckage of his school in the village of Chaung Lin on May 23, 2008 in the isolated area of Kanzeik in the Irrawaddy Delta region -- an area only accessible by boat which has received neither government nor foreign aid. Voters in regions devastated by the cyclone, many hungry and destitute, cast ballots on May 24 in a referendum that many said was meaningless because Myanmar's junta has already declared victory.
